The thing is the pumps are corrected to "standard day" +15C or 59F living in Manitoba the chances of the fuel you are pumping being at or above 15c are about zero. This means that although the meter says you put in a liter you didn't they are just charging you for a liter, the colder the fuel the bigger the spread and the more the meter will say you pumped into it. The manual will say that the size of the CC LB tank is 132L or 35 USG.

When my fuel light comes on and I fill up I put in 26-27 gallons.
I had to replace the sending unit once. I dropped the tank. Make sure you get a new tank seal and torque it down good. Might as well put in a drawstraw when you do it.
